of Oracle’s enterprise planning in the Cloud solution with all the services
customers need included for one low monthly fee,” said Paul Johnston, General Manager of Qubix.“Yes, there are other cloud
offerings, but these typically don't include the implementation services, the
training, ongoing support and consulting customers need, so we’ve re-imagined
how service should be delivered in the Cloud world and simplified everything.” he

•A subscription to the Oracle Planning
and Budgeting Cloud Services

Professional or Enterprise implementation packages

•Training to maximize user
engagement and productivity

accelerating the speed of delivery without compromising any features or
capabilities.

Neil Sellers, Director of Qubix, added, “We want to make planning, budgeting and forecasting
simple and affordable for all businesses, no matter what their size or complexity.”

tapping into the benefits of the Cloud, businesses no longer need to purchase
and set up hardware and software, which greatly accelerates the deployment time
and significantly reduces costs.Qubix
estimates that the total cost of ownership savings for a typical customer will
be between 30% - 40% over a three year period.

without compromise.This has been proven,
in some instances, to reduce planning and budgeting cycle times by up to 90%,
thus promoting faster & better business decisions.
